AN INCH OF ,RAIN
Now it is MeAsured by 5a Simple
1,1ttle Instrument
,
raw people really understand how
join is measured. We often read in
Ore newspaper that so many inches of
eesin have fallen during a certain
period, but it ls difficult to realize
what an inch eof it actually means.
kabare are seyeral methods of measur,
rain by what are know, as
uges." The most skilful is a eon-
emivance with a funnel at the top,
prough which the water passes into
* cup -receiver. The weight of the
elein automatietely works a...pencil.
This marks on a sheet of paper wound
round a cylinder, and when it has
marked in this fashion two-tenths of
an Inch, the cup tilts Over and erap-
gee the contents. The pencil returns
ea its former position, and the same
efttle device is repeated lucessantly
suitil the rain ceasete to fall, whilst
the pencil continues to register on the
taper attee-thed.

Henri Bourassa Roundly Scores • Both
Naval Policies. •
• Monteeal, ' Dec. 16. -"Sir Wilfrid
Laurier wishes at all costs to add to
,Mr. 'Borden's tribute of gold that of
blood," says Henri Bourassa, the Na-
tionalist leader, in the course of an
article in Is Dev,oir Saturday, 'in
which he unmercifully flays the naval
propoeals of both the •leadges 04 the
Government and the Opposition':
Mr. Beurteasa says Sir Wilfrid Lau-
rier desires to 1111 the three dread-
noughts Mn. Bordeee wade built with
a hiiiiiTitMile, food for guns.
Later on he says both policies are
fatal, humiliating and pernicious. Sir
Wilfrid's proposals are equally as ri-
diculous as those of erfr. Borden, for
the leader of the Opposition stande
up in the House and tells the repre-
sentations of the people that their
.81113)0 shall be built, manned and offi-
cered by Canadians, when he knowe
full well that even now it is impossible
for the Niobe or the Rainbow to se-
cure sufficient complements of mee.
Summing up his reinarks, Mr. Bon-
easea, says;
'The shy is clearing and the num-
bar increases rapidly in all the pro-
vinces of holiest people, faithful' te
the true tradition of their respective
parties and careful oi their nia,nly
dignity's 'who realize the humiliating
relee which are being prayed by the
exploiters who guide the destinies ot
the two parties. To all, as to Sir Wil-
frid Laurier and Mr. Borden, to all
Liberals and Conservatives, we say
now as in the past:
"You have no right to vote the pro-,
[mead naval laws without first con-
sulting the.people."

As ',a Result of What He Believed
Where Undue Attentions Paid To •
His Eighteen -Year -Old Wife By a
Neighbor, Edward Wellman
Shot,Her as She Lay Sick In.
. Bed -.He Dies Instantly.
lefarradra, Dee. le.-DtiVen desper-
ate:,supeessedly by Seelousy, Edward
D. Wellman, aged, 36, a farmer of
Rawdola Township, Hastings County,
probably fatally emended his wife and
then killed bimeelf with a shotgun,
late Saterday afternoon. The scenee
of tem shooting is a few miles south:
of the village. - •
Mrs, Wellman., who is about 20,
yeare the junior of hex bueband, was; .
lying, 111 in bed, and her mother, who;
had. been nursing bee, was in the barn'
when the tragedy was enacted.
• Wellman' had (hiring the cley bor-
rowed a 'shotgun from a n a
C,..1-
0T on,
the pretext that he wished tee° shoot,
veeaselse' At 4.30 p.m. be event into,
the bedroren -when his wife lay and
d,eliberatele- shot her. in the back of
ehe head. The shots destroyed one of
her eyes; tore away a portion of the
roof of the mouth, and broke several' -
of her teeth, Her injuries are such
tbae there are but slight hopes, if
any, for ber recovery.
Believing be bad killed his wife,
Wellman went upstairs, reloaded the
gun, and ate]: tying a .string to the
trigger fastened the string' armed his
foot. He .then placed the gun beneath'
ehis chin and pulled the trigger, with
the result that his head was partly
blown off. Death was instantaneous,
'Wellman had been acting strangely
for 'some weeks, While one rumored
cause of the tragedy had to do with
differences aver property -rights, it is
generally understood that Wellman
fancied undue attentions had been
paid hie wife by a farmer of the
neighborhood.
Dr. Algers of Stirling was ealled,
and Mrs. Welin)an, while conscious
for a brief period, outlined to him
some facts of the occurrence. The
affair has greatly disturbed the neigh-
borhood.
An etiquest will be held, which is
expected to throw light on the cause.
